How to buy the best fitting Bra
Tuesday, January 12, 2010


Buying the perfect bra is a hard thing to do.

We want to help our customers to make the best purchases possible, so here’s a handy little guide to help you out:

• It’s easiest to measure yourself either bra-less or in an unpadded bra – all you need is a fabric measuring tape available at any department store

• First, measure your band side – this is around your rib cage, right under the bust. Make sure the tape is flush against your skin. Add 5 inches to the measurement to get your band size. For instance, if you measure 29 inches around your rib cage, you’ll have a 34 inch band size – if you land on an even number, it’s best to round up

• Then, measure your cup size – measure around your bust at the fullest point- make sure the tape is firm to get an accurate measurement, but not too tight!

• Take the difference between your cup size and your band size, and convert this from numbers to letters, using the following scheme:
Less than 1 inch – AA, 1 inch – A, 2 inches – B, 3 inches – C, 4 inches – D, 5 inches – DD or E

• Your Band size + your cup size is your ideal bra size- use this as a starting point to try out new bras

Now that you know how to get a good measurement – start shopping for the bra that fits you best! Shop on eBay for Intimates! >>
